Discussion / OH GOD MY EYES and also confusion
« on: January 05, 2014, 18:07 »
Hey there, guise.
So. Angel of Darkness. The wiki tells me this: "Your vision radius is only 6 and anything outside of this radius is black, except for what maps reveal as well as Intuition. Scouts and maps do not know the location of stairs. Experience gain is doubled." I started it just today, on HNTR just to test the water.
Monsters are respawning. Should they be respawning? I don't think they should be respawning. Can anyone shed some light (haaaaaaaa.) on this for me?

Then again, due to the extra equipment, you do get a head start, so it is kinda easy as well.Bingo. I have an unhealthy obsession with the tactical shotgun as is, so having an assault shotty right out of the gate makes things so much easier, even on Hell difficulty. And traits rack up QUICK. Straight-up killing a mancubus at 1/0% gets you to 2/0% pretty reliably. The biggest problem with AoOC, in my opinion, is floor hazards. They're a really heavy movement tax on a low-level dude, so spawning in a lava-filled map can kill you by itself. Ditto barrels.
Yet another case of AoOC ain't worth the difficulty we gave it.
It is, obviously, rebalanced slightly in repo. Heheh.
Interesting. I'm looking forward to only getting a handful of combat knives and an acid spitter. :3
Still completely lost regarding how the turds to pick up the DS, though. I feel like reading Berserk might help?

I actually found AoOC easier than the other ones. Having an assault shotty and minigun from the get-go really makes things easier for me; I cornerfire like a freak. AoS was easy when I started, but that was in Month 1, so the OCD kicked in when I went down to the Wall and realized I couldn't get the backpack. I actually quit on the spot...not my proudest moment, that. XD
Also, have a mortem!
After I got momentum (think it was around level 17, when I got Fireangel), the run became pretty simple; it was kind of a joke after I got my nanoshotty, though. Those things are stupid powerful...

Hey there, people.
So let me break it down - I've had DoomRL for about 3 months now, and I'm playing the shit out of it. I still suck at it, though; only angel I've beat so far has been AoOC, and I've only beaten JC once, on HNTR. I have way too much fun with shotguns, and I'm kind of obsessive about killing every dude - I think that might be why, but who knows?
Anyway, that completionism I mentioned is a curse when I find stuff like the Dragonslayer. Cue exasperated groans, I know, I'm sorry. It just spawned again for me, in level 71 of Ao100 (which is a new personal best, but that's another story), and I've cracked. I can't leave the floor without it. I've tried to get this thing in the past, to no avail, and I know it has something to do with Berserk (maybe?), and I know it's super duper simple and I feel like an idiot but I can't leave this floor until I know for sure if I can get it. Still trying in real time, by the way.
Side note: this is NOT a request for someone to post the secret on the forums. I understand the history of the DS and I'm not asking anyone to break it. This is mostly here to let me vent. I'll let you know if I figure it out.
UPDATE: I couldn't deal. I didn't actually want to use the DS that badly, so I just moved on - I'll wield it someday, I suppose. Mortem to come soonish, I reckon.
